Please see the before and after pictures. I am so pleased with how this came out. I used automotive sandpaper 80 grit to remove the clear coat and old paint scheme. Then 600 and then 1000 to smooth the helmet. It's all about prep work. Masking tape to cover all vents and places I didn't want paint to go. Then cut out a stencil I liked to add some grit to the helmet. I used Krylon Primer+Black Satin for the base coat 2 layers. Then used Duplicolor Engine Enamel "Grabber Green" which is a nearly exact color match. Couldn't be happier with it's outcome. If you have been considering this project. Do it. It took start to finish 5 hours including dry time between coats.
